Autodesk AutoCAD 2016
AutoCAD has been leading the field in drafting and detailling software for 30 years, and is celebrating this anniversary with the launch of Autodesk AutoCAD 2016 - still the best and most reliable software on the market for creating and documenting your designs.
New in AutoCAD 2016 is the “Rapid RT Render Engine” that enables you to specify yourself how long rendering should go on for. This has made rendering even easier to run with many presets to help you produce your designs faster and better. The Revision Clouds option has also been improved, enabling you to easily share drawings with colleagues.
When you purchase a licence for Autodesk AutoCAD 2018, you also have the right to use the 2016 version. This is the only way, in the new licensing structure, to "buy" AutoCAD 2016 (further information on licensing).
